"Deal," Heather said, a genuine smile breaking across her face.

Without a word, Addie reached into her backpack and pulled out a thick, leather-bound folder. She slid it across the table toward Heather. AddieJuniper_198_SchoolGirl-Addie-Gives-Heather...

"Take these," Addie said gently. "They’re my master notes. I’ve summarized the chapters, added the primary source quotes we need, and there’s a timeline in the back that makes the whole sequence actually make sense." "Deal," Heather said, a genuine smile breaking across

"Addie, I can't take these," Heather protested, though her hand lingered on the page. "You worked so hard on them. What are you going to use tonight?" "Take these," Addie said gently

Heather felt a rush of relief, the knot of anxiety in her chest finally loosening. "You’re a lifesaver, Addie. Seriously. How can I make it up to you?"

The afternoon sun filtered through the tall windows of the Oakwood High library, casting long shadows across the mahogany tables. Addie, her signature green ribbon neatly tied in her hair, sat hunched over a mountain of textbooks. Across from her sat Heather, who looked significantly more distressed, her pen tapping a nervous rhythm against her notebook.
